How It Works
Verrucas are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), which infects the skin on the soles of your feet. At REM Laser Clinic, we treat verrucas using:
- Laser Therapy: Targets and destroys the blood supply to the wart, stimulating immune response to clear the virus
- Cryotherapy (if available): Freezes the lesion to kill infected tissue, allowing healthy skin to grow back
We’ll assess your verruca during a consultation and recommend the most suitable method for effective removal.
When Should I Treat a Verruca?
You should seek verruca removal if you:
- Experience pain or discomfort when walking
- Notice a cluster of small, rough lesions on the feet
- See black dots or thickened skin around the lesion
- Have tried over-the-counter solutions without success

Frequently Asked Questions – Verruca Removal
1. What causes verrucas?
Verrucas are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) entering through small cuts in the feet, often in communal places like pools and gyms.
2. Are verrucas contagious?
Yes, verrucas are highly contagious and can spread to other parts of your feet or to others through shared surfaces.
3. Does verruca removal hurt?
Our treatments are generally well tolerated. Laser therapy may cause mild discomfort, similar to a pinprick. We apply numbing if needed.
4. Can verrucas go away on their own?
In some cases, yes—but they may take months or even years. Professional removal is faster and prevents spreading.
5. How long does a verruca removal session take?
Sessions typically last 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the number and size of lesions.
6. Will the verruca come back after treatment?
Once the virus is destroyed, it is unlikely to return in the same spot, though new verrucas can develop if re-exposed to the virus.
7. Is verruca treatment safe for children?
Yes, we offer verruca treatments suitable for children and teens, with gentle options and age-appropriate care.
